This Just In (NOT) - Prosecutorial crimes against the Bundy family.Post Date: 2018-01-05 07:33:58 by Deckard0 Comments googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1509584875136-0'); }); From our Clippings From The Editing Room Floor dept., comes this face-palming story that begins: The third trial of Cliven Bundy has ended in a mistrial. The prosecution failed to turn over documents that would have helped the defense. Put more bluntly:The trial of Nevada rancher and leader of the Sagebrush Rebellion, Cliven Bundy, his two sons and a co-defendant ended yesterday in a mistrial. Why? Because the government had lied out of its ass to the judge and hidden evidence that would have significantly aided the defense. In other words, in a legal ...

Since 9/11, The US Govt Has ‘Lost’ $58,000 —EVERY SINGLE SECONDPost Date: 2017-12-23 16:01:05 by Deckard4 CommentsWhen U.S. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld revealed that the Pentagon was missing $2.3 trillion on Sept. 10, 2001, it seemed like a massive amountlittle did the American people know that the events that would occur the next day would wipe the missing money from the headlines, and over the next 16 years, the amount of money the government is missing would increase at a rate in excess of $58,000 per second. While $2.3 trillion may seem like a lot, another government agency admitted to losing triple the amount in 2009, when former Inspector General Elizabeth Coleman admitted that the Federal Reserve could not account for $9 trillion. I have a copy of ...

Congress clears temporary spending bill to avert shutdown (Swamp preserved & expanded)Post Date: 2017-12-22 14:13:55 by hondo682 CommentsWASHINGTON (AP) -- The Republican-led Congress narrowly passed a temporary spending bill Thursday to avert a government shutdown, doing the bare minimum in a sprint toward the holidays and punting disputes on immigration, health care and the budget to next year.The measure passed the House on a 231-188 vote over Democratic opposition and then cleared the Senate, 66-32, with Democrats from Republican-leaning states providing many of the key votes. President Donald Trump is expected to sign the measure.The stopgap legislation would keep the government from closing down at midnight Friday. It has traversed a tortured path, encountering resistance from the GOP's most ardent allies of the ...

The Republican Party Has Bowed, Completely, to the Mad KingPost Date: 2017-12-21 13:35:36 by Willie Green21 CommentsThey're now running interference in the Russia probe and kissing the Trumpian ring. After Wednesdays extended carnival of sycophancy, in which the leaders of the institutions of American government did everything except toss a virgin into a volcano in tribute to the president*, it seems almost too obvious a thing to point out that the Republican Party has handed itself over to this president* as his personal chew-toy. They have figured out that flattering this walking ego is the way for them to get what they want, and he cant live outside a constant bubble of counterfeit affection. Its a marriage made several levels lower than heaven. But theres more to it than ...

Authorities say fatalities and injuries have been reported. At this time, all southbound lanes of traffic remain blocked on Interstate 5.

Deutsche Bank Queried for Info Possibly Tied to FlynnPost Date: 2017-12-16 10:50:38 by Willie Green3 Comments U.S. authorities asked Deutsche Bank AG to hand over information about transactions that could be linked to former national security adviser Michael Flynn or entities connected to him, the Wall Street Journal reported. The information was sought as part of special counsel Robert Muellers probe of alleged Russian interference in last years U.S. election, the newspaper said Friday, citing unidentified people familiar with the matter. Flynn pleaded guilty this month to lying to the Federal Bureau of Investigation. A lawyer representing him didnt immediately respond to messages seeking comment on the papers report, and a Deutsche Bank spokesman wouldnt discuss ...

Paul Ryan Will Start Work on Legislation to Reduce the Deficit After He Finishes Passing Legislation to Increase the DeficitPost Date: 2017-12-12 00:55:12 by hondo682 CommentsRon Sachs/SIPA/Newscom If there is a single issue that has defined Speaker of the House Paul Ryan's career in Congress, it is debt reductionand in particular, debt reduction through entitlement reform. So it was not exactly a shock when Ryan said this week in a radio interview that after passing tax legislation, Republicans would move on to overhauling Medicare and other entitlements. "We're going to have to get back next year at entitlement reform," he said. He added, "Frankly, it's the health care entitlements that are the big drivers of our debt, so we spend more time on the health care entitlements, because that's really where the problem lies, ...

John Lennon Was Right: The Government Is Run by Maniacs for Maniacal MeansPost Date: 2017-12-08 05:13:41 by Deckard4 CommentsYou gotta remember, establishment, its just a name for evil. The monster doesnt care whether it kills all the students or whether theres a revolution. Its not thinking logically, its out of control.John Lennon (1969) Militant nonviolent resistance works. Peaceful, prolonged protests work. Mass movements with huge numbers of participants work. Yes, America, it is possible to use occupations and civil disobedience to oppose government policies, counter injustice and bring about change outside the confines of the ballot box. It has been done before. It can be done again. For example, in May of 1932, more than 43,000 people, dubbed the ...

Judge Protects Billionaire Pedophile, Won’t Allow Damning Evidence in Child Rape TrialPost Date: 2017-12-07 06:39:00 by Deckard1 CommentsWest Palm Beach, FL  When a convicted sex offender appears in court over a lawsuit filed on behalf of three of the many women he assaulted when they were young girls, it is assumed that his actions will be examined in detail, and the content will be graphic. However, in the case of a lawsuit filed against billionaire Wall Street hedge fund manager Jeffrey Epstein, 64, the judge presiding over it has declared that when it comes to graphic, sexual questions, the likelihood is that I will not allow them into evidence. Palm Beach County Circuit Judge Donald Hafele already ruled in favor of Epstein when he agreed to delay the next hearing in the 8-year-old civil lawsuit until ...

NSA’s McMaster “authorized surveillance of Bannon and Trump family.” Intel sent to George SorosPost Date: 2017-12-06 10:28:31 by Deckard19 CommentsThe Gateway Pundit reports that a former CIA paramilitary officer and member of the Trump transition team, John R. Maguire, reportedly revealed during a fund raising meeting for an intelligence gathering operation in Afghanistan, that National Security Advisor H.R.

Dismissed FBI Agent Falsified Statement That Would’ve Implicated Hillary Clinton in a CRIMEPost Date: 2017-12-06 07:02:32 by Deckard14 CommentsWashington, D.C.  Over the weekend, information about Special Counsel Robert Muellers top FBI investigator into Russian meddling, agent Peter Strzok, being removed from the probe due to the discovery of anti-Trump/pro-Clinton text messages exchanged with a colleague (a colleague whom he also happened to be having an extra-marital affair with) broke. Now, new information has come to light that reveals that Strzok not only played a leading role in the Hillary Clinton email investigation but potentially saved her from prosecution by changing then FBI Director James Comeys final statement to read that Clinton was extremely careless rather than the ...

Conyers resigns from Congress amid harassment allegationsPost Date: 2017-12-05 12:44:02 by Stoner3 Comments DETROIT  Besieged by allegations of sexual harassment, Democratic Rep. John Conyers resigned from Congress on Tuesday, bringing an abrupt end to the Detroit liberals nearly 52-year career in the House. The 88-year-old civil rights leader becomes the highest-ranking figure on Capitol Hill to be brought down by the sexual misconduct allegations that have toppled powerful men in Hollywood, the media and politics in recent weeks. Conyers made the announcement on a Detroit radio talk show and endorsed his son, John Conyers III, to succeed him. Im in the process of putting my retirement plans together, the congressman said from the hospital where he was taken ...

Your Lower and Lower Standard of Living Is a joke to the PentagonPost Date: 2017-11-28 15:42:07 by hondo6816 CommentsNo Fiscal Conservatives at the Pentagon Several times over my 29 years in Congress I have wondered whether there are any fiscal conservatives at the Pentagon. It seems that the Defense Department is just like every other gigantic bureaucracy. When it comes to money, the refrain is always more, more, more. On November 14, the House passed what one Capitol Hill paper described as a $700 billion compromise defense bill. It was $80 billion over the budget caps and many billions more than even President Trump had requested. I opposed almost all the major initiatives of the Obama administration. But it was false to say that the Defense Department was depleted ...

A judge has chosen to protect former U.S. House speaker and admitted child rapist, Dennis Hastert, by throwing out a lawsuit filed by a man who claims he was violently raped by Hastert when he was a childand this is not the first time the man claims he has been denied justice. According to a report from the Chicago Sun-Times, Judge Robert Pilmer dismissed the case citing the statute of limitations. The victim in the case, identified as Richard Doe in court documents, is the sixth individual to claim he was sexually assaulted by ...

JFK Files: The CIA Planned To Murder American Citizens In Miami And Blame It On Cuba During Operation MongoosePost Date: 2017-11-21 07:40:51 by Deckard0 CommentsAs reporters have began to sift through the thousands of newly revealed government documents relating to the assassination of President Kennedy and subsequent investigation, we are starting to see some stunning revelations concerning not only JFK but the overall mindset of the CIA at the time in their all out war against Communism. One of the more scary revelations to come out so far details a copy of a paper on Pretexts for war with Cuba that described a plan, under Operation Mongoose, to conduct false flag terror attacks in Miami, to be blamed on Cuba but actually carried out by the Central Intelligence Agency. Operation Mongoose was the operational name for ...

20,000 DWI Cases May Be Thrown Out After Cop Arrested for Tampering With BreathalyzersPost Date: 2017-11-20 13:10:13 by Deckard1 CommentsMore than 20,000 drivers in the state of New Jersey could have DWI charges wiped from their record because a police officer was caught tampering with multiple breathalyzer machines. Last year, Sgt. Marc Dennis, a coordinator in the New Jersey State Police Alcohol Drug Testing Unit, was accused of skipping a vital step in the calibration of breathalyzers on multiple occasions. It has not been specified in police reports whether or not Dennis had malicious intent. However, given how quickly criminal charges were brought against him, it seems that this is far more than a simple oversight. While Dennis denies the accusations, he was allegedly identified tampering with these machines ...

After Admitting to Secretly Experimenting on Troops, Army Refusing to Provide Them Medical Care Post Date: 2017-11-17 06:52:50 by Deckard0 CommentsIn a testament to how the US government views its military service men and women, for decades, troops were used as experimental test subjects and doused with chemicals, injected with drugs, and otherwise treated like human guinea pigsleading to a slew of negative health effects. When these troops simply tried to get care for the onslaught of medical problems brought on by these experiments the government told them to kick rocks. For decades, the military flat out denied medical care to those it injured through these unethical experiments. After being poked, prodded, and force-fed with everything from lethal nerve gases like VX and sarin to incapacitating agents like BZ, and given ...

US hires company with KGB link to guard Moscow embassyPost Date: 2017-11-15 15:48:07 by Willie Green0 CommentsMOSCOW  When President Vladimir Putin in July ordered US diplomatic missions in Russia to slash their staff by 755 employees, the State Department said it would need time to assess the impact of such a limitation and how we will respond to it. Part of that response has now become clear: To make up for the loss of security guards axed in the Russian-mandated staff cuts, Washington has hired a private Russian company that grew out of a security business cofounded by Putins former KGB boss, an 82-year-old veteran spy who spent 25 years planting agents in Western security services and hunting down their operatives. Under a $2.8 million no-bid contract awarded by the ...

Denver Cashes in by Seizing Cars for Low-Level Crimes, Even Without ConvictionsPost Date: 2017-11-15 05:47:28 by Deckard4 CommentsDenver Police body camera footageDenver cab driver Semere Fremichael got caught up in an undercover prostitution sting. He was innocenthe thought she wanted a ride, not sex for payand was acquitted by a judge. His taxi, however, got taken for a rough ride. Denver's Fox affiliate has an excellent two-part investigation showing how the city attorney's office is using civil asset forfeiture to cash in by snatching vehicles like Fremichael's for even low-level crimes, and even when their owners aren't convicted. In 2016, Denver made more than $2.4 million, seizing more than 1,800 vehicles enforcing the civil forfeiture component of its public nuisance abatement laws. ...

Why is Kansas government so shrouded in secrecy?Post Date: 2017-11-13 10:42:36 by Willie Green1 Comments Kansas must have more sunlight. Thats the inescapable conclusion its citizens will reach this week, as an investigation by The Star is published. The stories reveal a concerted and disturbing effort by officials at all levels of Kansas government to keep the publics business secret. The Legislature. The executive branch and state agencies. Police departments. Courtrooms. City halls and county commissions. From Tonganoxie to Topeka and beyond, The Star has uncovered a culture that seeks to hide critical facts from the very people the government is meant to serve. Top to bottom, Kansas government may be one of the most secretive in the nation. The public should be deeply ...

How Russian Twitter trolls worked to deflect bad news around Trump's campaignPost Date: 2017-11-10 09:56:20 by Willie Green10 CommentsDisguised Russian agents on Twitter rushed to deflect scandalous news about Donald Trump just before last year's presidential election while straining to refocus criticism on the mainstream media and Hillary Clinton's campaign, according to an Associated Press analysis of since-deleted accounts.Tweets by Russia-backed accounts such as "America_1st_" and "BatonRougeVoice" on Oct. 7, 2016, actively pivoted away from news of an audio recording in which Trump made crude comments about groping women, and instead touted damaging emails hacked from Clinton's campaign chairman John Podesta.Since early this year, the extent of Russian intrusion to help Trump and hurt ...
